I guess I have to stop now

Soooo...... last night my hubby sees new cuts on my hip. He gets really mad and tells me that if I do it again he will call and tell my mom and then call someone to get me help cause obviously I need help. He took my razors that I shave with out of the bathroom cause I tear them down to one blade and use them for cutting. Anyways, I know he cares about me and that's why it makes him so mad to see that I've cut myself but I know he doesn't understand. He made me promise to never do it again and all I can think of is now what do I do when i feel like this? Maybe I do need help, probably but I think all a therapist will do is try to give me medication or something to drown out my emotions and I don't want that. I don't know what my point was in writing this I guess I just needed to vent. If your reading this thanks for listening.

hey i am with you. my wife sees mine and just cries and blames herself. some of my cuts are from her but not all. most are from me and getting upset with myself. take the support from your husband and yes look for help. Thera pist do want to drown out so find like a cristian coucelor or a paster that will understand u. I actually found a pastor that is willing to look in to why a cutter cuts and willing to help me.

Hey there,
I'm glad yo udid write this. You are venting and reaching out for support thats why we are all here for.
I can defintely relate to how you are feeling but one thing you have to realize is Yes yo udo need help. At least your husband cares about you that much.
I would suggest call a crisis line t otalk to a professional or a therapist to get down to the root issues - believe me both those suggestions helps me.
You're in my thoughts and prayers
